Little change of pace from the "Mighty Ducks" tripe. This movie's rated PG-13, and for a while I thought it was just for language and that this movie would be perfectly fine for thoughtful preteens. There *is* a climactic game, but there is a LOT more at stake than the state championship or whatever.) A little warning for the parents, as I'm a responsible gremlin. Every cliche from the genera is tossed from the very beginning, and there isn't even a Big Game at the finale. I'll just say that I'd be very happy to see more sports movies made in the mold of this one. I won't give away anything about this surprisingly underrated film as I didn't know too much about it going in (as I've said many times before, that's often the best way to watch a movie). So imagine how happy I was when I rented this movie (it had been advertised as a sports movie in some ads and a chick flick in others) and found gold.
